My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 256 Moving House Sunrise

"What a coincidence!" Tong Hua feigned surprise. "Speaking of which, my starter Pokémon, Turtwig, was obtained from Professor Yamanashi."

Hearing this, Manyue looked at Tonghua with a touch more warmth, and her tone became gentler: "I never expected to meet someone from my hometown in Alora. It must be some kind of fate."

"Bree!"

Just then, Tibrim suddenly reminded Tong Hua that the skewers on the grill were almost ready!

Tong Hua hurriedly returned to the grill to get busy, while Manyue stood to the side, unconsciously twirling the ends of her hair with her fingers. "Well then, I still have some work to do, so I'll take my leave now."

After speaking, Man Yue bowed politely, turned around and walked towards the sea to continue her work cleaning sea cucumbers.

But she had only taken two steps when her Rotom phone suddenly rang.

"New information, Loto!"

The phone Rotom suddenly floated out of Full Moon's pocket, and the back of the phone case showed Rotom's anxious expression.

Full Moon frowned slightly and took the phone: "What's wrong?"

"This is Sunrise's cell phone! Rotom!" came another Rotom's voice, trembling with tears, from the other end of the line.

"Sheng Yang delivered some things to the Volcano Park this morning, leaving me at home to charge. I've been out of contact for over six hours now! Loto!"

After hearing this, Man Yue looked at the time in confusion: "It's only three in the afternoon. That workaholic moving house, he probably got another job on the way and was so busy that he forgot to go home, right?"

"But...but! I haven't received any money transfers since this morning, Rotom!" Rotom was frantic on the other end of the phone. He was certain that his master, Sheng Yang, must have encountered some kind of emergency!

"What! You're saying you haven't received your money for over six hours?!"

At this moment, Man Yue finally panicked; things might really be in serious trouble.

"Uh—" Full Moon's scream made Tong Hua and Tibrim stop what they were doing.

Tong Hua put down her skewers and walked over with concern: "What happened? Do you need help?"

Full Moon frowned, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes: "I have a friend who went out without her phone and has been out of contact for more than six hours."

What's even stranger is that his Rotom says there were no transaction records during this period. I'm a little worried—"

"Bri?" Tibrim tilted her head, clearly not understanding the connection.

"I'm sorry, you might not know this," Manyue explained. "My friend Shengyang is a workaholic. He spends all his time working except when he's sleeping."

He calls himself a moving company, accepting all kinds of cargo transportation commissions and receiving a large amount of money on average every day.

While there's always the possibility of an extreme situation where every payment is in cash, the connection to being out of contact makes it hard not to suspect something is amiss.

Full Moon's tone was filled with worry, and Tong Hua immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

Do you know where he was last seen?

"It must be Villa Volcanoes National Park, I want to go check it out!"

"Bri!" Tibrim suddenly jumped onto Tong Hua's shoulder, her curly hair swaying slightly, indicating that she wanted to help as well.

Tong Hua immediately suggested, "Let's help out and go take a look!"

So, Tong Hua quickly wrote a note and had Tibrim use his superpowers to send it to Jessica, who was playing volleyball.

The note briefly explained the situation and told them to continue enjoying their time on the beach, and that he would be back soon.

Meanwhile, in Villa Volcano Park.

Lucario and Nightshade are helping the seven Sableye collect the last rock samples.

"Ooh."

Akroma's commission is coming to an end today. For the past few days, they have been sending him a large number of rock samples every day. It is unknown whether these samples have been of any help to geological research.

"Whoa!"

A bewitching eye carefully placed the last piece of volcanic rock into the collection box.

The other Soul Reapers also sorted out the samples they had collected, preparing to send them to the laboratory at the Ether Base.

The Night Demon floated in the air, counting the samples. Lucario, meanwhile, stood high above, carefully observing the four—

week.

Suddenly, her ears twitched slightly, and her waveguide power keenly picked up the faint cry for help coming from afar.

"Hmm?" Lucario immediately looked southeast, where the path led to the top of the volcano.

Lucario leaped into the air and, with a few bounds, reached a high place.

The waveguide force spread out like ripples, quickly pinpointing the source of the sound.

"Help, help me—"

On the steep volcanic rock face, a male mountaineer was trapped on a protruding rock face.

No one knows why he went down to such a dangerous place or how he got there, but his right leg was pinned down by a falling rock, and there was blood on his forehead, so it looked like he had been trapped there for some time.

His backpack lay scattered not far away, its contents strewn across the ground.

"Help! Save them!"

Lucario immediately used Aura to notify the Night Demon below, and at the same time, he leaped off the rock wall, arriving at the trapped person's side with a few light leaps.

Hang in there!

Lucario used its waveguide to send a reassuring message while carefully observing the rock pressing down on the man's right leg.

This volcanic rock is quite large, and moving it rashly could cause further damage.

Just then, the Night Demon arrived with the Soul-Hooking Eyes. The Night Demon floated in mid-air, gesturing for the Soul-Hooking Eyes to scatter around the rocks.

"Whoa!" The Sableyes worked in unison, carefully prying the rocks with their Shadow Claws. Lucario, meanwhile, used his Bone Club as a lever for support.

"One, two, three!" With Lucario's command, the rock was slowly lifted. The Night Demon immediately pulled the trapped person out of the danger zone.

"Thank you—thank you all—" The man leaned weakly against the rock wall, his face pale.

Lucario examined his injuries; his right leg was clearly fractured, and his forehead wound was still bleeding. She immediately retrieved a first-aid kit from the man's scattered belongings and skillfully bandaged and immobilized the wound.

Finally, another bottle of the recovery potion that Tong Hua had given him earlier was poured on top. The mountaineer's injuries improved significantly under the effects of the potion, and he looked at Lucario with gratitude.

"Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I might have—"

Lucario nodded slightly and asked through his Aura, "What exactly happened? How did you get trapped in that place?"

Upon hearing Lucario's question, the mountain climber was clearly taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and said to the Pokémon!

"Oh right, there's one more person!"

Another boy fell down with me! He tried to save me, but he fell even deeper!

Upon hearing this, Lucario's pupils suddenly contracted!

With the power of the waveguide fully deployed, two more faint life signals were indeed detected in the deeper rock crevices below.

"Whoa!" She immediately gestured to the Night Demon and then leaped off the rock wall.

The Night Demon understood, instructing the Soul Reapers to care for the injured mountaineer, while he himself floated alongside Lucario O.

The deeper you go, the stronger the smell of sulfur in the air becomes, and the temperature rises significantly.

Lucario skillfully navigated the steep rock walls and finally found the unconscious boy on a narrow rock ledge.

He was wearing a dusty cycling outfit, with several tattered packages scattered around him.

Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet, and although his injuries appeared severe, he survived.

"Long-haired dog"

The boy, whose consciousness was hazy, was clutching something tightly in his hand and kept muttering to himself.

Beside him lay a dying long-haired dog, its back bearing a broken saddle; it seemed to be the boy's mount.
